Amadeus is designed by William Dudley, with lighting design by Paule Constable and sound design by Matt McKenzie.

Originally presented by the Royal National Theatre in 1979, Amadeus' subsequent run on Broadway received Tony Awards for Best Play and for director Peter Hall. The Ahmanson Theatre is located at 135 N. Grand Ave. For tickets and information call (213) 628-2772 or visit Taper.Ahmanson.com.
